I've never been to Cill Rialaig, run by Noelle Campbell Sharpe on the Iveragh peninsula in Co Kerry. It seems more aimed at visual artists but it's said to welcome writers too. I don't know any who have been there though.

This is to publicise a 6 month residency, so no use for writers with full time jobs or families.

6 MONTH WRITERS RESIDENCY PROGRAMME AT THE CILL RIALAIG RETREAT

OCTOBER 2009 – MARCH 2010Over 2,000 artists, mainly visual, have enjoyed residencies at the Cill Rialaig Retreat on remote Bolus Head, near Ballinskelligs.

Without a website the project has attracted over 150,000 applications for residencies.
